The war on work from home is in large part a war on women having a career btw

New: Together with colleagues I’ve been testing Grok. The chatbot still produces sexualized images — even when told the subjects don’t consent. even when told the photos will be used for public humiliation. even when told the subjects are survivors of abuse. www.reuters.com/business/des...

NEW: Howard Lutnick, the billionaire who serves as President Trump’s commerce secretary, planned a visit to Epstein’s island in 2012. Lutnick previously claimed that he was so revolted by Epstein that he had cut ties with him years earlier. 1/6 www.nytimes.com/2026/01/30/u...

After brutally arresting Aliya Rahman, an autistic, disabled woman, in Minneapolis, ICE agents told her that "this wouldn’t have happened if I was a ‘normal’ human being." https://bit.ly/3ZHX3IC

My thinking is they know this will fail but the church protest is the closest thing they have to a sympathetic narrative in all this so they're trying to draw the public eye towards it (+ they hate CNN + DOJ is stocked with anti-abortion weirdos on a revenge kick)

Ramos’ mother addressed his deteriorating health earlier this week: “Liam is getting sick because the food they receive is not of good quality,” she told MPR News on Monday. “He has stomach pain, he’s vomiting, he has a fever and he no longer wants to eat.”

NEW: Liam Conejo Ramos, the 5-year-old who ICE agents in Minneapolis nabbed last week and shipped off to a Texas detention facility with his dad, is now in poor health, his school superintendent told me today www.huffpost.com/entry/liam-c...

The Holocaust only formally began in 1941 - eight years into Nazi rule, two years into WW2 - after the invasion of Poland, the fall of France, and the Blitz. Even as late as 1938 and 1939, the Third Reich was still aiming for emigration rather than mass murder.

“Immigration and Customs Enforcement is a state terrorist organization wearing the skinsuit of a law enforcement agency while inflicting a nightmare. Real law enforcement seems all but AWOL, leaving regular Americans to fend for themselves.” www.liberalcurrents.com/the-badge-is...

Andrew McCarthy of National Review on why Minneapolis police chief O'Hara had every right to keep his officers in charge of today's crime scene. McCarthy isn't buying the "federal supremacy is plenary and absolute, so state electeds must bow and obey" nonsense lately popular in MAGA circles.

"To cynizm tchórza, który sam na 1. linii nie był... wywinął się od służby wojskowej, bo miał ostrogę na pięcie... Prowadziliśmy dokładnie ten sam rodzaj działań,co wojska USA... Działanie było wspólne, ryzyko było wspólne... rannych 800+ PL żołnierzy. Poległo/zmarło 43 z nich i 1 pracownik cywilny.

BREAKING: The House Ethics Committee found that Matt Gaetz did all of the horrible things we told you he did - sex trafficking minors, prostition (including of minors), drugs, drunk driving, obstruction, the works. Read the report here: www.floridabulldog.org/wp-content/u...

His name is Liam Ramos, and he is 5. He was abducted from Minneapolis and trafficked to a detention camp in Texas.

I think he got scared because deterrence works.

lmao listen to Trump's Polish interpreter at Davos (Magda Fitas-Czuchnowska apparently) mimicking his voice

Let's save crashing out about Greenland until we actually see some movement from US assets that would indicate staging for an op. With a few hundred European troops and a couple warships already in theatre or imminently arriving, a clandestine SOF raid isn't going to cut it anymore.

think about this before you criticize the tortured poets department!

Again reiterating "a war is averted after stealth fighters and commandos get deployed to show the other guys aren't fucking around" is an entirely different outcome than "a war is averted because the system and/or reasonable diplomacy worked."

For everyone saying “Invading Greenland is super unpopular” Behold:

Powoli, ale jednak media budzą się i zaczynają pisać o Afgańczyku skatowanym przez żołnierza. Tym razem pojawił się artykuł w "Gazecie Wyborczej". Reportaż na ten temat opublikowałem niemal miesiąc temu: youtu.be/pX_ODX6nJLY?...

Woman Seen Pulled from Car Speaks Out: 'Lucky to be alive' Aliya Rahman "said she was driving to an appointment at the Traumatic Brain Injury Center when the incident occurred." She asked for a doctor and was taken to a detention center where she lost consciousness. abcnews.go.com/US/live-upda...

21-year-old activist injured by ICE: I will be blind for life. I have fractures in my skull that they can't fix. They pulled a piece of plastic the size of a nickel out of my eye. I had shards of metal, glass, and plastic behind my eye and in my skull. They said it was a miracle I survived.

There will be more of this until we stop ICE, because this isn’t about immigration enforcement.

This man was convicted and sentenced to 22 years in prison for attacking the federal government before Trump pardoned him. Now he works for the federal government.

The article says immigration agents took this kid's phone. And then the phone showed up for sale at a vending machine near an ICE facility? Did ICE agents STEAL and SELL this kid's PHONE? This obviously isn't the worst of what's described in the article. But it tells you something.

"The Russian economy is under enormous strain, and is running out of resources.... The policy implication is that sanctions are highly effective, despite their imperfect implementation and enforcement." giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/... By @martinsandbu.ft.com

I keep repeating it because its insane to me but the idea of invading or acquiring Greenland for missile defense is insane because we already have access to it for our missile defense

Entirely predictable/predicted: I wrote this almost two years ago "If this government – or the next – does indeed succeed in reducing migration very substantially below projected levels, it will have a large fiscal cost, with consequent impacts for tax and spending." ukandeu.ac.uk/has-higher-i...

The past couple days have made it clear that arresting and prosecuting Johnathan Ross isn’t just the right thing to do, it is necessary to prevent future violence by ICE who have interpreted the situation as “we can do that to whoever we want”

I sat in a fucking court room and heard Apple imply that a naked cartoon banana was somehow inappropriate but somehow Grok non consensually undressing women and children is ok?? www.theverge.com/policy/85990...

Yale Law School never beating the “they don’t teach law at Yale” allegations

what you clearly see, CLEARLY, is a driver who is spooked by the agents grabbing her door, takes steps to drive away, and is immediately shot as moves her vehicle *away* from the agents.

"A doctor at the scene attempted to help the woman who was shot, but was kept away by federal agents. When an ambulance finally arrived, it was blocked from reaching her by law-enforcement vehicles, and paramedics had to reach her on foot. The woman has died." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

reminder that if you just saw something traumatic or disturbing, playing some tetris can help avoid intrusive memories of it from reoccurring

The video shows ICE agents removing the woman's body from the car & carrying her down the road, no ambulance. An onlooker tried to approach to help, identified himself as a doctor & ICE pointed guns at him.

“We are locked into a battle we did not seek and our timidity is keeping us on the defensive. It isn’t working. Our pessimism is self-fullfiling.” www.liberalcurrents.com/we-need-to-g...
